Former Lake Worth Commissioner Suzanne Mulvehill requests widening of road

Wayne Washington from the Eye on Palm Beach County blog has this news about former Lake Worth Green Commissioner Suzanne Mulvehill, an excerpt:
     Suzanne Mulvehill, former Lake Worth city commissioner and the president of sales for a nursery west of Delray Beach, is urging Palm Beach County to widen Atlantic Avenue between the Delray Marketplace and U.S. Highway 441.
     “The widening of this small section of roadway was in the 5 year budget in 2013 and years previously, but was taken out of the budget in 2014, when it is now needed the most,” Mulvehill wrote to County Mayor Shelley Vana. “It is clear that with the number of trips nearly doubling on Lyons Road and with the new housing developments being built and PUD’s being built west of Atlantic Avenue, that (there is) need for this small stretch of two-lane road be widened and put into the budget.” [emphasis added]
This is quite the change from when Mulvehill was a commissioner in Lake Worth. Remember when she was all about resiliency, sustainability, and saving the environment? When you become the 'president of sales' for a company trying to make a profit it puts a whole new perspective on things.
This is a classic photoshop from the inimitable former Lake Worth blogger Tom McGow.
